Mr. Chen’s persuasion

Listening to the words of the few casters in the Livestream room, Chen Mo felt there was some logic to it, yet he still felt a sense of unease in his heart.

Yesterday, these same casters said that the BL Team had a high chance of losing, but what was the result?

They entered the finals with an undefeated record.

He came here specifically to see the BL Team lose so he could feel satisfied, but ever since the day before yesterday, he hadn't seen them lose a single match.

He thought to himself that he couldn't just sit by and wait for defeat.

If the BL Club really won the championship tomorrow, then the BL Game Club would become famous.

When a club becomes famous, the natural result is profit.

After thinking it over, he got up and left his presidential suite, heading straight for the Room of the four esports players.

…

"Fei-ge, should we stick to our original tactics tomorrow?"

Lin Guangqing sat in his esports chair, turning his head to look at He Pengfei with a slightly worried expression.

Their tactics and playstyle had been pretty much figured out; even though today's matches were all victories, they hadn't been won easily.

Furthermore, the strength of the ENG Club tomorrow could not be underestimated. They had also tested their own playstyle during today's matches, and the results were quite good.

If they both used the same tactics tomorrow, it was very likely that they would be the ones to lose the match.

"Yeah, there's no other way; we have to keep at it. If the ENG Team uses the same tactics as us tomorrow, then it will come down to a battle of operations to see who is better."

He Pengfei rubbed his temples helplessly. They were very clear about the ENG Team's roster: one experienced veteran player and three strong rookie players.

Their veteran player wasn't like them—the kind of veteran whose age had caused their hand speed and reaction time to decline. Having played professionally for four or five years, he was at his peak in terms of reaction time, hand speed, and experience.

And those three new players weren't just fresh recruits who had just joined a team; they had also played professionally for one or two years and had a certain amount of experience in competition.

Facing such a team, he didn't have much confidence relying solely on one set of tactics.

"Right!"

Lin Guangqing nodded, feeling worried about this competition as well.

Now that they had reached the final moment, if they could just secure victory tomorrow, they would stand on the championship podium once again. How could they not be expectant and nervous?

Knock, knock, knock!

Just then, the Room door was suddenly knocked on.

"Coming!"

Lin Guangqing responded, quickly walked to the door, and opened it. When he saw who was at the door, he exclaimed in surprise.

"President Chen!"

"Hmm, are you training?"

Chen Mo looked inside and found that the other three players were also in the Room, all sitting in front of their computers.

"Not training, just playing a few games to keep our feel for it. We were also discussing our strategy for tomorrow."

Lin Guangqing said quickly, then stepped aside.

"President Chen, please come in."

Chen Mo nodded and walked straight into the Room.

"Hello, President Chen!"

Just as he walked into the living area, the other three players in the Room all stood up together to greet him.

"Everyone sit, don't be so formal. I just came over today to chat with you all."

Chen Mo found a chair and sat down.

Seeing this, Lin Guangqing quickly grabbed a bottle of mineral water and placed it on the table in front of President Chen.

"President Chen, we only have mineral water here for now."

"That's fine!"

Chen Mo nodded, not bothering to drink the water, and instead looked at the four players and said calmly.

"I've watched the matches over the last two days. Entering the finals with an undefeated record is already excellent. To achieve these results, I believe you must have put in several times more effort than other professional players."

"To be honest, I was very surprised that you made it to the finals."

"However, I didn't come here today to encourage you to keep working hard and win the championship. I came to tell you that while winning is certainly important in a competition, a spectacular match is also very important."

"Although you won the matches over the last two days, they have actually been rated as the most boring matches in the esports scene. Basically, for the first 10 to 15 minutes, not a single fight breaks out. Some people are almost falling asleep watching."

Having said that, he quietly watched the expressions of the four professional players, taking a sip of the mineral water on the table as he did so.

Of course, what he said wasn't fabricated; in the official match Livestream room, there were indeed many such discussions.

"Of course, I'm not blaming you for making the matches uninteresting. What I want to ask is, is this the kind of match you wanted? Is this what you enjoy? Think back to when you were young—that feeling of a hearty, exhilarating fight on the arena floor. Don't you miss that feeling?"

"That feeling of pitting yourself against an opponent and defeating them through real combat—don't you want that?"

Listening to President Chen's words, the four professional players' expressions gradually became agitated, their eyes filled with a hint of nostalgia.

"President Chen, we also want to defeat our opponents through combat, but you know our situation. Because of our age, our hand speed and reaction time are indeed different from those younger professional players. If we rashly engage in combat with the opponent, the risk is very high, and it's very easy to lose the match."

He Pengfei revealed a bitter smile. How could he not want to fight?

But esports is different.

During his usual Livestream room sessions, he could attack and fight as he pleased, but in a competition, he had to consider victory and the team. He couldn't just ignore everything for the sake of fighting.

Besides, the club also demanded results.

Lin Guangqing and the other three also wore expressions of helplessness.

"Risk? The worst-case scenario is just losing, right? What's the problem with that? If you lose, you lose. I hope that tomorrow you can bring out your passion and truly fight a real battle."

"Use combat to win the final match, give your youth closure, give the audience a spectacular match, and show the style of our BL Team. Don't worry about the final result; we will bear the win or loss together."

Chen Mo stood up, patted the four of them on the shoulder, and then walked out of the Room.

Once outside,

Chen Mo smiled slightly. The BL Team had been using one tactic to win their matches for the past two days, so he wouldn't let them use their previous tactics. Let's see how they win this time.

If their hand speed and reaction time couldn't match those young players, then under the same conditions, they would definitely be at a disadvantage.

As long as the BL Team didn't win the championship tomorrow, he would be relieved.

Although a runner-up could also gain some traffic, it was worlds apart compared to being the champion.

In esports, only the champion is remembered.

…

Inside the Room.

He Pengfei and the others quietly looked towards the door; President Chen had already left.

After a long while!

He Pengfei snapped back to reality, turned to look at his teammates, a strong fighting spirit radiating from his eyes.

"Brothers, change the strategy; we're switching to a different playstyle tomorrow."
